Bold reference numbers in this section identify parts not shown in the figures alongside the text, but which can be found in the exploded view diagram.

In the ABS version loosen the screws (31), to remove the hose guide (3) and collect the spacers (4).

Detach the tabs (B) and release the drain hose (12) from the cover (A) on the generator cover (Sect. 9 - 8, Removal of the generator cover).

Disconnect the coil connectors (F) from main wiring harness (Sect. 6 - 1, Routing of wiring on frame).

Undo the screws (16), recover the spacers (17) and withdraw the airbox vertically upwards, taking care to recover the rubbers (19).

Remove the air filter as described in Sect. 4 - 3, Changing and cleaning the air filters.

If removed, fit clamp (1) onto drain hose (2).

For the remaining reassembly operations, reassemble following the removal procedure in the reverse sequence, and route wiring as shown in Sect. 6 - 1, Routing of wiring on frame.

Install the oil breather valve (14) in the hole on clutch-side casing aligning valve hole (L) with threaded hole (H) on casing and starting screw (13).

Tighten the screw (13) to a torque of 10 Nm (Min 9 Nm - Max 11 Nm) (Sect. 3 - 3, Frame torque settings).

Check that the rubber bushes (19) are present on the airbox.

Fit and tighten the screws (16) with spacers (17) on the airbox, to a torque of 10 Nm ±10% (Sect. 3 - 3, Frame torque settings).

Tighten the clamps (G) of the couplings to a torque of 1.5 Nm ±10% (Sect. 3 - 3, Frame torque settings).

Connect the coil connectors (F) from main wiring harness (Sect. 6 - 1, Routing of wiring on frame).

In the ABS version refit the hose clip (3) to the vertical cylinder head cover and start the screws (31) in their thread with the spacers (4).

Tighten the screws (31) to a torque of 10 Nm (Min. 9 Nm - Max. 11 Nm) (Sect.  3 - 3, Frame torque settings).

Place the oil breather hose (2) and the stepper motor tube (20) and tighten the clamp (1) and (5) to a torque of 1.5 Nm ±10% (Sect. 3 - 3, Frame torque settings).

Fasten the drain hose (12) to frame using the clamps and under cover (A) on generator cover (Sect. 9 - 8, Refitting the generator cover) then engage retainers (B).
